Cult Greek Films | Athens | May 29

The Astor movie theater in downtown Athens will be screening three often overlooked or under-appreciated Greek films that have risen to cult status on Monday, May 29. They are Kostas Manoussakis's “Treason” (no subtitles) at 6.30 p.m., Takis Kanellopoulos's “Glory Sky” (French subtitles) at 8.30 p.m. and “The Excursion” (English subtitles) by the same director at 10.15 p.m.
